Arrdc4‐dependent extracellular vesicle biogenesis is required for sperm maturation

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2021
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important players in cell to cell communication in reproductive systems. Notably, EVs have been found and characterized in the male reproductive tract, however, direct functional evidence for their importance in mediating

NCP activates chloroplast transcription by controlling phytochrome-dependent dual nuclear and plastidial switches. [PDF]

, 2019
Phytochromes initiate chloroplast biogenesis by activating genes encoding the photosynthetic apparatus, including photosynthesis-associated plastid-encoded genes (PhAPGs).

Lipid droplet biogenesis [PDF]

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2014
Lipid droplets (LDs) are found in most cells, where they play central roles in energy and membrane lipid metabolism. The de novo biogenesis of LDs is a fascinating, yet poorly understood process involving the formation of a monolayer bound organelle from a bilayer membrane.

SND3 is the membrane insertase within a distinct SEC61 translocon complex

Nature Communications
During the biogenesis of most eukaryotic integral membrane proteins (IMPs), transmembrane domains are inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane by a dedicated insertase or the SEC61 translocon.

Characterization of Shigella virulence factor intracellular spread A (IcsA, or VirG) functional epitopes against S. flexneri 2a and S. sonnei invasion and adherence

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
There are no licensed vaccines against Shigella, a leading cause of children’s diarrhea and travelers’ diarrhea. To develop a cross-protective vaccine against heterogeneous Shigella species and serotypes, we attempted to apply an epitope- and structure ...

Circular RNAs—The Road Less Traveled

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020
Circular RNAs are the most recent addition in the non-coding RNA family, which has started to gain recognition after a decade of obscurity. The first couple of reports that emerged at the beginning of this decade and the amount of evidence that has ...

Mitochondrial Quality Control in Age-Related Pulmonary Fibrosis. [PDF]

, 2020
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is age-related interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology. About 100,000 people in the U.S have IPF, with a 3-year median life expectancy post-diagnosis.

Regulatory roles of circular RNAs in poultry diseases: mechanisms and research advances

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Research on circular RNA (circRNA) in poultry increasingly explores its role as a potential regulator in various diseases. It has also shown differential expression of circRNAs in infected tissues, signifying their participation in disease pathogenesis ...
